Outside of the grammer and spelling, the kicker for this is the above quote.
The typical variation of the "I send you money order (Easy to cash , trying to get you off-guard) the the shipping agent will come pick up.. SCAM.

The way it'll work out is, the money order will be made out to you for too much $$ (The extra was to be sent to the shipper but, got to by "accident"), you are to cash the order, send the difference to the shipper (Who would never show up and may even call you and try and strongarm you in to sending the cash) and you are left with the whole pile of do-do in your lap. Even if the order cleared the first time, it would come back eventually as bad and bingo, you get stuck with it. The bad guy, goes away with something for very little effort if not nothing.

Everyone, learn from this... Especially from an out of state or country "Buyer", unless they give you cold hard cash in hand, DO NOT take cashiers checks, money orders, or even personal checks.. way to easy to counterfeit them.. If you get a scheme that looks anything like this one as described... I most likely will be a SCAM! I work around 20-30 of these a month in my little po-dunk town so in a major metropolis just think how many are done... EEEEK!
